Fresh fruit is hard to beat in the summer; juicy peaches, tangy berries, the joy of discovering something new at the local fruit stand. But sometimes life is just too go-go-go to enjoy these small delights. It’s not like you’re gonna drag a whole pineapple on a hike…

That’s where dried fruit comes in. It’s got all the tangy sweetness you love, just in a more convenient package.

Dried fruit is filled with good things for your body like fibre and antioxidants. It’s also a fantastic source of energy for when you’re exercising. A few Maui Pineapple Rings, Orchard Apple Rings or slices of Sunshine Mango are perfect for a quick fuel boost on a run or hike. Even better, none of our dried fruit snacks contain any added sugar. Just 100% fruit! For kids with a sweet tooth, dried fruit is also a great way to mix things up in a clean-eating kind of way.

And if the fruit itself isn’t indulgent enough, we’ve got three delicious recipes below using our dried fruit snacks that will help you take things to the next level.
